What is the process of importing external data to a spreadsheet?

To import external data into a spreadsheet, first, open the spreadsheet application and navigate to the "Data" menu. Select the option for importing data, which may allow you to choose from various sources such as CSV files, Excel files, or databases. Follow the prompts to locate the file you wish to import, configure any necessary settings (like delimiters for CSV files), and then click to finalize the import. Once completed, the external data will populate the spreadsheet, allowing for further analysis and manipulation.
